I hope all you wonderful readers around the world are enjoying your summer! Mine's been great, but BUSY. Amidst some traveling, I am also still working hard on putting some finishing touches on the upcoming My Milk Toof book with Chronicle. It's going through its final editorial stages, and once that's finished I'll be back tending to the blog. Thanks again for your patience!

Another thing I've been working on is finally getting some new merchandise together! At some point in early August, I'll have three limited edition gicléeprints available for purchase. The images are from "Bed Buddies", "Summer: Thursday", and "Up and Away" (pictured below)- and I have to tell you, the prints came out AMAZING. They are 11" x 17" (28cm x 48cm) with a half inch white border, signed and numbered, and printed on beautiful velvet fine art paper. I'll make an announcement ahead of time when exactly they'll be ready so please stay tuned for more updates!

I've been DYING for a print of ickle and Lardee in their spaseship ever since you posted that photo! I NEED IT! I just hope I can afford it...and that they don't sell out in minutes like your stuff tends to do :)

The Story

When I was young, I placed my baby teeth under my pillow and when I woke up I'd find a shiny new quarter. But whatever happened to those little teeth? Where did they go? Would I ever see them again?

Many years later, a little tooth was standing at my door. First came ickle, a smart and inquisitive little toof with a suitcase full of books. Then came Lardee, a hungry fellow with a penchant for getting into trouble. Together these two milk teef keep me company in my cozy little apartment. Welcome home, my milk toof!
